Yay! Now maybe they will show the finals live and not delayed as well into Sydney next year. Although I could drive to Terrigal to watch the finals live, but hey whats an hour right when there are amazing kids shows to watch from 630pm-830pm on 7 and 10!!!

Tell me about it! I don’t understand the network’s AFL content snubbing Sydney audiences. If they want to push for a second team here, they should be playing finals matches and major events like the Bronlow Medal live on TV! This city drives me crazy sometimes!

Thank goodness we didn’t have to put it with that AFL dribble on Sydney’s primetime. The majority of the population does not care, and Channel 7 sees that.
